Thumbs up to Israel - other so-called "civilised and humane " countries could take several leaves from their book!

Sa'ar told the Knesset that he proposed the bill at the prompting of his 16-year-old daughter, Daniella, who originally approached him about it.

Thank goodness he listen to his daughter, if one of us wrote to him about this I bet he wouldn't listen us.

Great news, either way.

In the Netherlands there is a ban on animal testing for cosmetics, but not for the ingredients. So when you buy products not tested on animals, you should always ask if the ingredients are not tested as well.
